Life (for us as humans) is the existence of our sentient self-aware body. As soon as sentience or self-awareness has gone, life for us does not really exist - a person in a vegetative state may, of course, still have life as they may still be sentient and/or self-aware.

Life is also not at all complicated. At the basic level, you need food and water to power your body and a method of keeping your body tempreature at the required level (whether that be fire or clothes, etc)....................and that's it really.

Anything else that makes life complicated is brought on us by ourselves : love, hate, war, peace, money, religion, etc are all artificially created by us. Step away from these and your life can be as simple as you wish it to be.

Life is Natural.As long as it is in its nature, it is simple.The moment it looses its nature becomes complicated.
Look at the Nature e. g.River. Comes out of mountain as a zeal.Nature of water is to attain the bottom most level i.e.to flow from higher to lower level.It's journey ends when it reaches to the bottom-in to the Sea. We can derive three simple principles.(1).Avoid Clashes - whatever comes in the way to clash avoid it and march on.(2) Adjust Everywhere-No matter how many times the route require to change but adjust without loosing the goal to reach final destination-Sea. (3) Share your Happiness on the way with all.
Thus the same Zeal which was smallest become the largest by remaining Natural.
So meaning of Life is to remain Natural.

Getting so philosophical, in my opinion, just ruins the joy and wonders of life. Take the matrix, for example. How many nights did you lie awake, wondering if you were actually hooked up to a machine. If you want my advice, I'd say to have FUN, LOVE those around you, and CARE for the world people we live with. Everything else is secondary.

It is complicated when we make it like that. For me life is for enjoyment. Life is only some time on Earth and what you make out of that time.

Deserve before you desire and life will be simple. Things would seem to go our way.
Desire before we deserve, and life would be complicated. We spend time chasing desires, without the total focus on 'deserving' it first.

hi sister,
have u ever discussed it with ur parents.they are the only experienced who really can solve ur confusion on life.
u know how much sacrifice and hurdles they might have faced to bring u up .
so there is no need for these kind of confusions in this age.u really have time and energy to serve ur home and mother country .
it is how u over come the complecation,how u find solution for complecation,how u withstand complications....people who face more complecation have stronger mind and heart,,,
soo no need for confusions...FACE THE FEAR ,THE FEAR VANISHES(hope it makes sense...right)

We always hav choices in life.....our life is how we make of it.....so if we make it complicated it will b tht and if we make it simple it will b tht also...so basically it depends on how we choose and view our life.....
life is simple on its own....its we who make or view it is a complicated one.....

anamika, are you writing a book? Life is the process of spiritual growth. all humanity has been experiencing the various aspects of Gods vision of himself. once all the "ingredients" of God have been "Baked" into us, we will be a living expression of Gods vision of himself. "God dwells within you as you." You have unity with God in unconditional love within your heart. As the colors of the rainbow are contained within sunlight, so to all things are contained within Gods unconditional love. Make life simple. "The mind is not for thinking, the mind is for receiving thought." Forget the past, live "NOW",. accept the positive thought God imparts to you, do what is before you to do, dedicating all to the service of God and all he created.
